===Rules===
Arena: The Firefly
The battle take place in the silent world of space and both opponents start on the surface of the Firefly class ship, Serenity. Trainers are provided with space suits, and Pokemon with an indestructible, blue-tinged bubble of oxygen about their heads at all times.
While they are in contact with the ship’s surface, gravity holds, but as soon as they leave the surface, whether to jump in the air, or to dodge an attack, gravity takes a vacation and the Pokemon may go floating off into space. Luckily, there are handy space-Pokemon who will fetch back any Pokemon who does find himself flying away, bringing it back down to the surface with a penalty of 5(%) health lost through pure terror at the freefalling and lack of gravity.
Every sixth turn, the referee rolls a dice to determine whether Serenity is on the run from the Alliance, with a 30% chance of this being true. If this happens, all participants must use a full turn to hold on for dear life, lest they be lost in the depths of space. During this lost turn, however, each Pokemon regains 20(%) energy, as a result of sitting still and performing no moves.
The top of the Serenity is an uneven place, looking like
this. Pokemon can move about the top of the ship at will, and even down the sides if they please, because of the built-in surface gravity field.
Rules
- As space is a singularly noiseless place,
no sound-based attacks will work.
- The same goes for
weather moves, as there is obviously no weather in space.
- If a Pokemon loses contact with the surface of Serenity, they will be automatically transported back by one of the referee’s Pokemon, and lose 5(%) health.
- Each Pokemon
may only use Double Team once, and instead of its normal lasting time,
it will only last one turn, as the clones have no gravity to stop them floating off into space.
-
Toxic may not be used, and any
powder-based moves have a higher likelihood of failure (70%) due to it being easier for them to disperse.
- Any moves that would normally damage the environment (Dig, Earthquake, etc.) does the same as what it would normally do, minus the damaging element. So an Earthquake would shake the surface and do its normal damage to the opponent, but the surface of the ship will not be harmed.

===Round 2===
Grumpypig smirks, and watches as Astarte tries to go to sleep in the midst of the battle. Well we can't have that, and Grumpypig goes in close, to make sure the pup is asleep. Satisfied with his discovery, a glowing white fist is raised, cocked, loaded and swung, knocking Astarte to the moon! The pup goes shooting skyward, only to be caught by a passing Clefairy herd once more and broiught back to Serenity. Yipe.
Ast: -20E/+15H/-27H ===///=== Gru: -10E
Noting no health gain on Astarte's end was something. The pup still slept and this Pig smiled, knowing this might be easier than ever! Grumpypig quietly channeled a powerful force of energy. Alas it would be met with a Dark Pulse, as Astarte fired one off in her sleep. Grumpypig was blasted back and alot of focus. Damn! So she resorted to running up and slapping Astarte with a Draining Punch. Cant be the only one healing, after all.
Ast: -5E/+15H/-8H ===///=== Gru: -4E/-14H/+4H
Grumpy gears up for it again, but Astarte smirks and awakens after that last hit. She winced, feeling no better than when she went to sleep. Relinquishing power, Astarte notes that pig coming in close! So he shoots in and Crunches the left arm that was coming into punch him! Grumpypig winces and slams his fist into Ast's back, making those jaws open.
